The postscript suggests that the whole Headless Horseman attack might have been a prank played by Ichabod's romantic rival who, having accidentally or deliberately killed Ichabod, hid the body. 3/
We see Ichabod's last moments from his own point of view. How is the author supposed to have come by this information? 2/

Just priceless. An estimated 20% of genetic research papers contain errors because Excel converted some gene names into calendar dates. https://twitter.com/EconAndrew/status/1170178626903597057

This, from a pretty harsh review of Gladwell’s new book, is an EXCELLENT lesson on why you should always track down the original source of seemingly-unlikely statistics.
Because often secondary sources launder really bad counting.

When is a girl simply learning chemistry? Or running/swimming/volleyballing her heart out? When is a girl just walking through the world, not the least bit interested in attracting the male gaze?
Never, in the minds of some grown-ups. Like this swim ref. https://www.chicagotribune.com/columns/heidi-stevens/ct-heidi-stevens-wednesday-swimmer-disqualified-suit-wedgie-0911-20190911-eginoua4ifhr5emhkxel6ky3ey-story.html
